I am getting tired of trying to open my clothing business, but I can't raise enough capital. What do you thin


I am getting tired of trying to open my clothing business, but I can't raise enough capital. What do you thin

I think my buddy Donnie didn't give up, and now he has two "Dazign" stores, one in NYC and one in Miami, and I saw him on MTV the other day hanging out with Kanye West. Blew my mind.

So beg, borrow, and steal, but don't give up on your dreams, man.

Hope this helps!

I think you don't want it enough. You don't have the "fire", the burning desire to open your own business. If you did, you would find a way to raise the money.

I think capital flows towards the investment that looks the most promising for a good return given the risk. Since you admit to not being able to raise capital...it sounds like everybody you are talking to thinks the idea is not worthy.

So, either the idea is not worthy.
Or, you are talking to the wrong people....

You gotta figure out which it is.

I am also suffering a similiar situation with an invention promotion company. But my faith in my ability and in the ability to market this keeps me going. Knowing that things happen for a reason I believe that at the right time the right investor will come along. Keep trying and don't be afraid to try different avenues.
